Masterlist of Ship Essays

Since compiling the Masterlist of Essays Posted Outside of the hp_essays community, I've been asked a number of times why the list didn't contain any shipping essays. Well, the long and the short of it is that I myself am not really a shipper of any shape or form, and the idea of venturing into areas of fandom so unfamiliar to me was rather daunting.

However, I've got some free time on my hands at the moment, and I thought I might as well broaden my horizons a little, fannishly speaking. I freely admit that even after many hours of searching out and compiling links, I am still at somewhat of a loss when it comes to the shipping parts of fandom, so I would really love it if any of you could contribute some more links. I know that in a fandom as big as this one, there have to be many, many more wonderful essays out there waiting to be read and debated.

Essays on any facets of HP ships are welcome, whether pointing out the good, negative, or complex aspects; though please, none which engage in ship-bashing or ad hominem attacks.

Many thanks to saeva for her help in tracking down some links.
